AFS Silk HA Stabilizer
High aspect ratio stabilizer designed to increase glide and lift of the Silk foils, ideal for advanced wave riding, light downwind and sliding wing foiling.
The Silk HA Stabilizer range combines lift, efficiency and great turning fluidity, maintaining a surfy feel but with even more smoothness than classic wave stabilizers.
Strengths
- Increased glide and lift to make the most of even soft waves and low-power bumps.
- High aspect ratio to reduce drag and maintain consistent speed and scrolling.
- Three sizes (HA 135 / HA 145 / HA 155) to fit different weights, styles and front wings.
- HM carbon construction, very light and rigid, with screws and covers included.
- Compatible with all AFS fuselages, easily integrated into existing setups.

Size guide – choosing the size
The choice between the three sizes depends mainly on the rider's weight, the surface area of the Silk/Silk HA front wing and the level of support you want when pumping and turning.
| Model | Rider profile / recommended use |
|---|---|
| Silk HA 135 | For lightweight or advanced riders looking for maximum smoothness and a very “loose” feel, ideal with medium/small surface front wings and more radical wave riding. |
| Silk HA 145 | More versatile option for intermediate riders who want a balance between glide, support and freedom in turns, suitable for all-round surf foiling and wing foiling. |
| Silk HA 155 | For heavier riders or those who want more support and ease, especially in softer waves or for pumping and light downwind sessions. |
If you're looking for a single stabilizer for wave riding and gliding foiling, the Silk HA 145 is generally the best compromise; 135 for maximum freedom, 155 for more comfort and support.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which foils is the Silk HA Stabilizer designed for?
It is specifically designed for Silk and Silk HA foils, but is compatible with all AFS fuselages, so it can also work well with other wave and glide oriented setups.
What is the difference between Silk Stabilizer and Silk HA Stabilizer?
The standard Silk Stabilizer is more “pure wave” and surfy, while the Silk HA Stabilizer adds more glide and lift, making it more efficient and smooth, especially in soft waves and connecting sections.
Is it suitable for beginners?
This stabilizer is designed for riders who already have some foiling experience and want to improve their glide; for the very first outings, larger, less powerful stabilizers are more suitable.
What type of construction does it use?
It is built in HM carbon, which offers a very high stiffness/weight ratio, ensuring steering precision and immediate response to pressure changes.
Which model do I choose as my only Silk HA stabilizer?
For unique surf foiling and wing foiling on the waves, the Silk HA 145 is often the most balanced choice; if you weigh more or want more support, go for the 155, while the 135 is ideal for those looking for the ultimate “free” feel underfoot.
